Denver Regional Subway

Denver Regional Subway

Wait? Is Denver getting a Subway? No, not at all. I was clicking around Kickstarter and ran across the Albuquerque Subway Poster. The poster became my inspiration as I had wanted to play around with Adobe Illistrator or being a big open source proponent, Inkscape in my case. Knowing zero about the product or how to use it; I watched YouTube videos, read through the site’s tutorials and did lots of Googling before coming up with the end result. For my Kickstarter video I used Kazam Screencast. The DRS website was originally written in Jekyll but then moved to WordPress in June of 2018 as my first WP site to use Gutenberg and WP Block Party blocks.

More Jekyll & GitHub Pages

by

I went on a short bender of Jekyll, GitHub Pages, Wikipedia and stock photos. More of a visually creative thing but they turned out well so here they are.

The Sandia Mountains – Pixelarity’s Big Picture was a design I had previously wanted to create a demo website with but was waiting for the perfect set of photos to do it with. After finding Free ABQ Images, I knew what must be done. Text content taken from Wikipedia.

Multiverse Rainforest – What started as Pixelarity’s Multiverse Jekyll design, was adapted using photos from Pexels and content from Wikipedia. The website is hosted on Github pages.

Dimension Bar & Grill – I started with Pixelarity’s Dimension Jekyll design and added tables to accommodate food and drink menus. Stock photos are from Pexels and it is hosted on Github pages.
